Wordless Wednesday: Always in motion

Cole is always moving. From the moment he wakes up until the moment he finally closes his eyes at night. He's been on the go since he was in the womb --gearing up his leg muscles for his active life. Now at nearly two and a half, he lives life perpetually in motion: walking, riding his bike, balancing on neighborhood rocks or boards in the woods, running around the house naked. And all the while he's moving, he's constantly talking. Constantly connecting. Constantly thinking. I love just sometimes watching him move his legs, talk in his sweet and gentle toddler voice, and look up at me expectantly for a response to some random question that just popped into his mind.

Below are some iPhone pics from the past month of Cole in some kind of motion.

You'll see from one of the pics, even when he's sitting he's moving. And that particular picture of him is my favorite. Cole had brought home a baby doll from his day care. That very night I showed him how to swaddle the little girl. His first idea was to take the swaddled baby and rock her in his rocking chair while I played Twinkle Twinkle on my iPhone. As he rocked her he also moved his head to the music, holding her tight all the while.
